My little tiger.

2

     There are two people talking in the room. An old man with white hair sat on one side of the table. He looks prudent and formidable.

      On the other side of the table there is a middle-aged woman sitting. She looks kind and is still pretty suitable for her age.

     " We should tell this to Tora. He should have to known, because he would have been more careful about himself. It's almost time. " She said.

     " Um....I will tell him by the time. Now, we have to arrange their engagement as soon as possible. Because those people started to do something. " The old man said.

     " But Tora didn't agree with it. " She replied.

     " But we have to do it. If those people knew about the secret of Tora. He is not safe. The only one that can protect him is Makoto. " He said.

      While they were talking, the boy walked into the room.

     " Grandpa....What are you talking about? " Tora asked and walked to sit next to the old man.

     " Nothing. " The old man spoke and rubbed the young man's head fondly.

     " Where are you playing? My little tiger. " Tora's grandpa asked.

     " I went to practice archery, grandpa..." Tora replied.

    " Um...Good. Do you take medicine today, Tora? " The old man asked.

    " I haven't taken it yet. But right now I'm very strong and not sick. Why do I still have to take medicine every day? Grandpa..." Tora said.
    
    " Because when you were young you were often ill. I love and worry about you very much. And this is a medicine for nourishment. You take medicine every day. That's good for you. " He replied.

    " Hikari, You can bring some medicine for your son to eat, " He told his daughter.

    " Yes, Father. " She replied.

    After Tora's mother left the room, his grandfather turned to speak to him.

    " I love you very much, Tora. I do everything for you and everyone in our family. Do you understand me? " The old man asked.

    " I understand, Grandpa. " He replied.

    " Good boy. This amulet will help to protect you. "

    " Don't let this be far from you. " He said and stared at the amulet.

      It is the small black bag that was embroidered with a golden thread in the shape of a tiger. Tora hung this amulet on his neck since he was a child.

     After a short while, a maid came and informed the leader of the house that someone was asking to meet.

    " You take him here. " The old man turned and told the maid.

     " Where are you going, Tora? " He asked.

     " I will go to Mother. Mother took a long time to take medicine, " Tora replied.

     " You don't have to go anywhere. You are waiting for your mother here, " The old man said.

     " I don't want to see him. " Tora quietly said to himself.

     " What's wrong, Tora? " Tora's mother asked when she came back to the room and saw her son acted like something dissatisfied.

     But the person who answered the question is her father.

     " Makoto came to visit us here. "
